Can a biodegradable material become the basis for valorizing high-end textile waste? <\/em>With SILKI<\/strong>, the answer is yes. The 3D-printed monoblock seat was presented at the Intergraf Design Awards<\/strong><\/a> 2026 in Copenhagen (October 14-16) and is made with a Rekrill<\/a><\/strong>-based compound, the biomaterial developed by Krillmat and enriched with silk powder<\/strong> obtained from post-industrial textile waste. <\/p>\n\n

The role of Rekrill in the project<\/h2>\n\n

For SILKI, Krillmat developed the Rekrill biodegradable base<\/strong> and produced the granules for 3D printing<\/strong>. The silk powder recovered by Pulvera was integrated into this matrix. The result is a material printable in large formats, suitable for a complex design object such as a monoblock seat. <\/p>\n\n

The project demonstrates a key characteristic of Rekrill: its versatility as a matrix<\/strong>. Rekrill can accommodate fillers from different supply chains\u2014in this case, the textile industry\u2014without losing the compound’s printability or biodegradable nature.<\/p>\n\n

SILKI is the result of a supply chain of complementary skills:<\/p>\n\n
